Linus' 4K $1000 = Good enough for 720p Twitch?

Hi guys, I'm thinking of another build of doing Linus' 4K Budget build if it will be good enough of 720p Twitch streaming. I'm only streaming MOBA games with 1080p monitor (downscaled of course). Here's the said specs:

 

- AMD 6350

- 8GB RAM

- R9 285

- 970 Gaming

- NZXT S340

 

And I'd like to ask if 6350 is enough for future use of Oculus Rift, or should I get 8350 instead?

yo. 

 

AMD cpus will bottleneck a 970.

 

ANY OF THEM.

 

EVEN A 9590.

 

 

Misunderstood OP lel

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

You might need a stronger CPU for streaming. An 8350 might be better than an i5 because it has more threads, but I'm not sure....

For the GPU, the 280X is better than a 285 fyi.

fuck off that's untrue

 

i mean technically any cpu will bottleneck anything. If you get a better cpu you will always get more fps

 

 

YOU MUG

A i5 in streaming? Maybe but not a Xeon 1231v3

I don't get this. AMD cpus will bottleneck a motherboard?

 

lel misunderstood op.

Kappa. I'll use R9 285 as my GPU, then 970 Gaming as the mobo.

" An 8350 might be better than an i5"... NO!

Maybe you never heard of uses before.........

Single thread wise, yes the 8350 is crap. But since it has more threads ( and they're physical threads, not virtual) it might be better for streaming.

But by this point, I won't recommend any AMD CPUs (except APUs) because of how old they are,

Hmmm.. 8350 on MOBA + 720p30f twitch? Would it be bad?

 

Also 8350 on Oculus?
